But I was told this credit has been extended retroactively through December, 2021 and the latest 2020 Form 5685 shows it.

Home appliances have never been included in the Home Energy Credit section on a federal tax return.

IRS Form 5695, Residential Energy Credits only applies to energy improvements to a residence - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i5695.pdf
